Anyone who knows Chris Heiniger knows that the man just doesn't smile all
that often. Or, if he does smile, it's fleeting and not easy to glimpse. Thus,
it becomes all the rarer to see not only a picture in which he is smiling, but

working very closely and lovingly with, was deemed by him a more than adequate
reason to pose and smile.

Last night, I had the privilege and honor of hanging around with the staff
at Quills Coffee as Kenny Smith helped them install their new La Marzocco Linea

while to get all the kinks worked out, and Chris Heiniger claimed to be nuzzled
by a family of possums, but the early closing time of 4 PM yesterday still
allowed us to get everything done by midnight or so.
